From the ashes arises the sacred lore of the North, the ancient stories and proverbial wisdom of the satr religion. Mighty Gods and fierce Giants battle in the never-ending struggle between order and chaos, while men seek honor and glory in the eyes of their beloved deities. After many years of research and piecing together sources, now comes the first known holy text ever presented for the satr faith. Giving these ancestral accounts in their true, epic form, The satr Edda is designed as a religious work by and for the men and women of this path. In reconstructing this sacred epic, the idea is to create a living storytelling tradition that will honor the legacy of the ancient Teutonic peoples, while providing an in-depth source of satr wisdom for our modern world.

Those who practice Asatru believe in a direct line of communication with the gods. Asatru adherents hold the gods exist and can be communicated with in a variety of ways, including rites, prayers, and offerings. Since the Norse pantheon contains many gods and goddesses, Asatru cannot be considered a monotheistic religion like Christianity. To differentiate themselves from other polytheistic religions, some Asatru adherents use the term "Heathen." Asatru is a religion that emphasizes fellowship, with its adherents regularly coming together for worship, ceremonies, and communal meals. Asatru rituals differ from sect to sect, but they always involve some combination of praying to or offering gifts to the gods. The Asatruar, or members of the Asatru religion, observe holidays like Yule and Sigrblót. According to Asatru, honor is crucial. Respecting one's community and ancestors is a part of this. The Asatruar way of life emphasizes moral fortitude, self-reliance, and strength. Since they consider the natural world to be the home of the gods and goddesses, they try to live in peace with it. To an Asatruar, death is not the end, but a passage to a new world. Asatruar have faith that their ancestors will welcome them into Valhalla upon death, where they will wait for Ragnarok. This book will provide you with an in-depth understanding of the following subjects: Origins and History of Asatru Core Beliefs of Asatru Practices of Asatru Norse Mythology The Nine Worlds The Aesir and Vanir God Holidays and Festivals Significance of afterlife Asatru in the Modern World Asatru and Heathenism And Much More!
